'I am president, coach and player' - Ibrahimovic says Milan would win Scudetto if they signed him earlier

 

The team is one of the form teams in Serie A, and the forward believes they could have been title contenders

Zlatan Ibrahimovic cheekily claimed Milan would have won Serie A had he signed at the start of the season as their upturn in form continued with a remarkable 4-2 win over Juventus.

Ibrahimovic returned to Milan – where he previously won the Scudetto in 2011 – as a free agent in January after leaving MLS and the LA Galaxy.

The 38-year-old striker is still having an impact in Italy's top flight and took his goal tally in his latest Milan stint to six when he scored from the penalty spot against Juve on Tuesday.
That strike halved a two-goal deficit after efforts from Adrien Rabiot and Cristiano Ronaldo and improbably propelled Milan to a come-from-behind success, with Franck Kessie, Rafael Leao and Ante Rebic also on target.

A three-goal flurry within five minutes helped shrink that deficit, with Rebic scoring the game's final goal to seal an 18-minute span of dominance for Milan.

Juventus 2 Lazio 0: Alves, Bonucci secure historic third consecutive Coppa Italia

Juventus made history on Wednesday as they became the first team to win the Coppa Italia three times in a row after a 2-0 win over Lazio
Juventus took their first step towards the treble with an historic 2-0 win over Lazio in the Coppa Italia final at Stadio Olimpico on Wednesday.

First-half goals from Dani Alves and Leonardo Bonucci secured an unprecedented third triumph in a row in Italy's premier cup competition and the 12th in their history.

It also means Juve's hopes of winning Serie A, the Coppa and the Champions League in a single season for the first time remain firmly intact.
